How the book was produced

The publication reflects the work of a group of researchers who spent eight months monitoring two harpy eagle nests found in the Carajás National Forest. The nests were home to two eaglets, seven and nine months old.

João was assisted by a professional climber, who deployed ropes to enable him to get to the top of the tree and stay in place there.
